Brazil's X ban is sending lots of people to Bluesky

One of the linked articles said it boiled down to X being ordered to censor political opponents of those in power. They chose not to. I’m glad.

Now, traffic is going to Bluesky. I wonder if this means that Bluesky has or will be offered the same choice. We might see what the character of that organization is by what choice they make.

Did you miss the whole part where these "policial opponents" attempted a coup against the democratically elected president?

There was no coup. There was a protest. The protesters wanted the military to enact a coup. And the military did not attempt a coup. You simply cannot claim that elderly people with bibles and flags amounts to a coup or even an attempt at one.

This was discussed at length only two days ago. If you disagree with this, just refer to this comment thread:

My account is rate limited to ~5 posts/hour so I don't plan on recreating that thread here.

Asking for a coup IS an attempted coup
